It's a little ironic when Howard stiff arms some of the same L.A. trash that just a few years prior gave Shaq the heave.

Who would have thought that the Sixers would not come out as the giant losers in that trade?
Shaq: D12 can't handle the Pressure .

Shaquille O'Neal has never liked Dwight Howard. He never liked the comparisons, he never liked the way Howard used his nickname ("Superman"), he didn't like his game, his style or his approach. He's pretty much bagged on him at every turn. Howard never appreciated the talk, either, and has blown off every criticism ever tagged on him by the Diesel.
So it should come as no surprise that O'Neal said Saturday while grand marshal of the Coke Zero 400 on Suday that Howard's decision to leave the Lakers in free agency for Houston was born out of an inability to handle the pressure. From the Orlando Sentinel:
“It was expected," Shaq said of Dwight's decision. "We've all been in L.A. and not a lot of people can handle being under the bright lights. Everybody wants to do it, but when you get there, there are certain pressures. I think it was a safe move for him (Dwight) to go to a little town like Houston.”
With full of giant superman characters in Shaq's home, & a fan of Superman himself, that's why :lol
Houston, Texas is a little town
these two have something in common : Orlando
